**Brynda** is my sister, she is married to **RickQ** which makes him my brother-in- law. They even met right here, on the Dope!

Well, I’m married to my wife. I’m related (by blood) to my mom, dad, two sisters, one aunt, one uncle and one complete set of grandparents. I should probably throw my kids in to that category also, as well as one nephew, 3 nieces, a handful of great-aunts and great-uncles and a gaggle of cousins. By marriage I’m realted to 3 brothers-in-law, 3 mothers-in-law, 2 fathers-in-law (my wife’s family gets around), and (thanks to a ne’er do well BIL) a literally unknowable number of nieces and nephews. Oh, BTW, I believe ne’er do well BIL just got married again, giving me one current sister-in-law to go with the 3 (or 4) ex-sisters-in-law, a flock of ex-live-in-girlfriends-in-law and about a million one-night-stands-in-law.

I think that about covers it, as I doubt you really want me to disclose dead relatives. But then the OP is unclear on that point. Just let me know.

**Pepper Mill** is my wife, but she hardly ever posts anymore. She mostly reads over my shoulder when I start laughing outrageously while on the computer.

_waves_ Hi, **Sissy**! 🙂  
There’s also a user name, **Yepmas** , that belongs to my husband.  
Not that he uses it.  
Told him it would be a waste of $14.95 :rolleyes:

**matt\_mcl** and **Hamish** are roommates. It’s my understanding that there is no hanky-panky involved, though.

I do remember that **matt** and a British poster whose name completely escapes me were involved long-distance, but I haven’t read anything about that lately so I don’t know what’s going on.

In unrelated relations news, **Wierddave** and **GingerOfTheNorth** are married, **Aries28** and **Sauron** are married, **Esprix** and **pinoyboytoy** are seriously involved, and **Polycarp** and **skulldigger** are married.

Who is, IIRC, **Crazy Cat Lady**.

No marriages or relatives posting here (thank god), but I used to be roommates with **bristlesage**. We “broke up” when she married **dynosaur**. Neither of them post much, though.

Not quite right. **CrazyCatLady** is married to **DoctorJ** , not **Doctor Jackson**.

I am newly married (3 weeks) to **snoozle!** , but I think he has only posted once or twice, he mostly asks me whats happening on The Straight Dope.

</div>

Since **Long Time First Time** and I have occasionally posted erroneously under each other’s screen name when I’ve used her home or office computer and failed to log in or out as **Sternvogel** , I guess I can now reveal she’s the woman I’ve had occasion to refer to as my sweetie. We met on-line, but not through this forum – after i moved to Lafayette from Ohio, I discovered the **SDMB** a few years ago, and talked so much about it that **LTFT** finally checked it out, lurked a while, and eventually joined. We’re definitely in a committed relationship, but for now, it’s easier for us to maintain separate residences than it would be for me to move in with her and her kids.

Sadly that relationship did not last. **Matt** is single.

Engaged, suffice it to say. But he doesn’t post here at the SDMB.

**DeaganTheWolf** is my significant other. He mostly lurks, and I don’t post much anymore. (Gotta love a full workload at school and a job.)

So YOU were the one he was talking about in my New Years Eve thread! **Miller** , thank you for making **Sol** so deliriously happy. He’s been a much happier person of late.

**if6was9** has been my SO for just over a year now. **tanookie** is married to **Parallax**.
